By the time of Winter Olympics start in Sochi, half of the
curriculum of RIOU students of MSA Program is over. And
although intensive training process does not leave much
time free, the students had an opportunity not only to see
with their own eyes how Olympics are prepared and
coordinated, but also to become active participants in
Olympic events. Strong emotional charge brought by
Olympics along with the knowledge gained in RIOU study
